Built to Last: ‘What It Takes to Lead in Luxury Construction’

Chris Sinclair Season 1 Episode 27

This week, I sat down with Darren Hendriks — President of Homes by Hendriks, a custom home builder, entrepreneur, and a true craftsman in the world of luxury construction.

From working part-time as a site supervisor to leading one of Niagara’s most respected custom home-building companies — Darren’s story is one of legacy, leadership, and loving the process.

In this episode, we talk about:

✅ The evolution of Homes by Hendriks over two decades

✅ What goes into building dream homes from the ground up

✅ Navigating family, business, and burnout as a leader

✅ How craftsmanship, communication, and client trust drive long-term success

✅ Why the best builders are also the best listeners

If you’re passionate about building — whether it’s homes, businesses, or teams — this episode is packed with real talk and hard-won wisdom.
